Hello Sweet Friend!

 

Today's post is for the Cut It Up Challenge

Our Theme this fortnight is

This Makes Me Happy.

My card was made for my BFF

and posted  to her with a few dies

that I had doubled up on. 

She has gifted me so many double ups

so it was my turn to send her mine - she laughed

which made me Happy!

The stencilled background is from Art Anthology

inked with Tim's Saltwater Taffy

The SU gingko die cuts camd from a panel

in my bits box then die cut the frame.

Added sentiment and adhered to pink card stock

onto SU Mossy Meadow.

Head over and check out what the Designers chose 

as inspiration that made them Happy

Thinking of You...

We have added a New Challenge this year 

to our Weekly Themes at Just Us Girls 

 and I am thrilled to be our First HOST!

It's Anything Goes using a STENCIL - 

and don't we all have loads to choose from?

How fortunate I was that with our first challenge of the year

I made two cards. This is the other one and coming in handy

as I have had hubby in hospital on and off for a few weeks

so from playing Nurse and home chores play time

was on the backburner.

I do love adding texture to a stencil as I have done here.

I used my Magical's letting the colours soak into the background.

Added some white thread behind the die cut

and cut the sentiment several time for dimension.

Popped onto white card base and my stencilled card is complete.

Head over and see what our Guest Stef 

and the Team created with their stencils and

come join in the fun.

Hope to see yours in the Gallery.

A Big Thank You to Stef 

for sharing her talents with us this month. 

A LATE update sending this over to the
